Lookout America, Smart Cars are coming!

These 2-seaters just hit US soil and are models of comfort, safety and super fuel efficiency. With great German styling, a remarkable "exoskeleton" for superior safety and a 55 MPG engine, the Smart Car is set to become the new, earth-friendly "Mini Cooper" -- and there's a topless model for those convertible lovers.

The 2008 Smart Car Fortwo is a tiny, fuel-sipping city car for those whose daily driving limits them to congested downtown streets. The Smart Car is truly innovative because it matches contemporary social trends for big cities, where many people's lifestyle means they don't need more than two seats, and they prefer something that's small, stylish, and fun.

The Smart Car makes parallel parking obsolete - no more craning your neck to wedge your way into a parking spot that's just too tight to fit your car into.

Now you can simply park perpendicularly and walk away. The Smart Car is a powerful little burst of energy with exceptional maneuverability and a passion for hugging street curves. Engineered by Mercedes-Benz, the Smart ForTwo boasts impressive engineering and a zippy 71-hp engine.

Completely redesigned to suit the tastes of discerning drivers, the new Smart Fortwo brings a standard of style and design to the subcompact market that's head-and-shoulders above the rest.

The Smart ForTwo is smaller than the Mini Cooper and is more fuel- efficient than the Cooper, the Honda Fit, and the Toyota Yaris.

The Smart Fortwo has incorporated safety measures designed to save lives and cause fewer injuries. Though ultra-tiny, the Smart ForTwo provides space, luxury, and protective features found in high-end luxury cars.

The car's extra width gives it a pronounced façade, making it seem much larger, and bigger stock tires accentuate its presence, re-inventing it as the hottest Smart Fortwo to date.

The Smart's headlights are larger than previous models. New H7 projection headlights give the Smart Fortwo a futuristic expression, but the Smart smile remains.

Top-of-the-line Smart models come with only the best quality materials and accessories, offering comfort, elegance, and convenience. These include leather seats and trim as well as a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
